114: Section 114
Loriv's current state was equivalent to a gravity body exerting its full power.
Judging by the evaluation system of Jing Yuan's cheat system, he should be close to Tier 2.
"Loriv, how did you get such strong power?" Amidst his surprise, Jing Yuan asked.
Jing Yuan had always been the type of person who preferred using verbal persuasion over physical force.
Unfortunately, Loriv ignored him completely and threw another punch.
Was he ignoring him? Or was he unable to speak?
Jing Yuan had no way of knowing for now.
Loriv was like a berserker now, only capable of frantically smashing his fists at Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan's reaction speed was very fast, and he dodged continuously.
He looked at Vandy and the other woman, asking, "What exactly did you do to him?"
Vandy only smiled slightly and did not answer.
Jing Yuan grew angry.
Originally, he wanted to capture Loriv first, but right now Loriv's combat power was terrifying, and his mind seemed somewhat clouded.
Jing Yuan couldn't do anything to Loriv with just his fists and feet.
Seeing the smug expressions on the faces of Vandy and Fan Lü, it seemed their plan had a chance of success.
Little did they know, Jing Yuan's strongest ability was not his hand-to-hand combat.
Jing Yuan used telekinesis to tear off two doors, controlling them to slam violently against Loriv's head.
Clang!
The two doors sandwiched Loriv's head from the left and right, and the shape of a head was directly imprinted onto the doors.
Loriv let out a furious roar.
The two doors separated and slammed together again.
Seeing that this still couldn't knock Loriv unconscious, Jing Yuan changed his strategy.
The two iron doors separated and directly wrapped around Loriv's arms, firmly restraining him.
Jing Yuan rushed forward and delivered another punch to Loriv's head.
With Jing Yuan's full-strength punch, Loriv's head buzzed.
But immediately after, he began to roar again!
Looking at Loriv's appearance, he didn't even seem human anymore.
Jing Yuan took two steps back and angrily asked Vandy and Fan Lü: "What exactly did you do to him?"
"As you can see!" Vandy simply said those four words indifferently.
"Fine!"
Seeing Loriv acting like a ferocious beast, there was no point in keeping him around.
A small cone appeared in Jing Yuan's hand, and with a thought...
The Flying Cone arrived at Loriv's head, right between his eyebrows.
Loriv's skull was very hard. The Flying Cone was like a drill bit drilling into his head, and for a moment, it couldn't even penetrate.
"Ah!"
Loriv let out a cry of pain.
Seeing this, Fan Lü cursed angrily, "You monster!"
Jing Yuan hardened his heart and applied more telekinesis; the Flying Cone pierced straight through.
Loriv instantly lost his life and fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, a complex expression appeared on Fan Lü's face, shifting from hope and mockery at the beginning to sadness, anger, and despair now.
The two were being held by the Wasteland Hunters Team Members. Jing Yuan walked over and asked, "What exactly did you two do to him? To make him turn into this!"
Facing Jing Yuan, the two chose to remain silent.
Jing Yuan stared at Fan Lü. She had large eyes, a doll-like face, and fair skin. She was indeed quite attractive.
Jing Yuan pinched her face with his hand; it felt very smooth and tender. No wonder she was favored by Charles.
However, her expression was extremely malicious, as if she wanted to eat Jing Yuan alive.
"I feel like Vandy's mouth might be a bit tougher than yours."
Jing Yuan said something seemingly nonsensical, then turned to Vandy.
This Light Bearer, wearing a high-slit qipao and possessing a bombshell figure, was the breeding model in many people's hearts.
Jing Yuan was also curious about what her face looked like under the mask.
Jing Yuan grabbed Vandy's chin with one hand and flipped open her helmet with the other.
Jing Yuan was startled. She also had large eyes, somewhat similar to Fan Lü, but her facial contours were more angular.
There was a scar near her eye.
Could this be the reason she wore a mask all year round?
"So this is what you look like, Lady Light Bearer!" Jing Yuan gripped Vandy's neck with one hand and controlled the Flying Cone to point at her forehead with the other.
Jing Yuan looked at Fan Lü, "Speak! What task did Charles assign to you? And what did you do to Loriv to make him like this?"
Fan Lü didn't speak. Instead, Vandy said with a smile, "Just kill me! It's impossible for us to betray the Leader."
Fan Lü's eyes were filled with terror. She didn't want to betray Charles, but she also didn't want to see Vandy die.
Originally, Jing Yuan thought Vandy might be stubborn, so he used Vandy to threaten Fan Lü, but he didn't expect both of them to be so stubborn.
Jing Yuan controlled the Flying Cone to drill into Vandy's forehead until blood came out.
But Vandy's gaze remained firm. She wasn't afraid, even of death.
At this moment, Fan Lü's eyes flickered, and she hurriedly said, "I'll talk! I'll talk! The Leader... Charles, he arranged for us to conduct experiments with the gene potion. Loriv was used by us for the experiments."
Only then did Jing Yuan turn to look at Fan Lü. He hadn't seen her eyes flickering just now, but when she said "Charles," Jing Yuan heard it loud and clear.
Given Fan Lü's adoration for Charles, even if she were to surrender, would she change her way of addressing him to just "Charles" so quickly?
Jing Yuan knew Fan Lü wasn't telling the truth, but it wouldn't hurt to listen.
Chapter 117: Really... forget it?
Jing Yuan released Vandy and asked, "What gene potion? What's its use?"
"We only know it's a gene potion that can significantly enhance a person's physical fitness, allowing them to reach superhuman levels. However, this drug has flaws. Charles asked us to study it secretly and fix the flaws."
"Fix the flaws?" Jing Yuan followed Fan Lü's words and asked, "Why does he want to fix the flaws? Could it be that he wants to use this gene potion himself?"
"Most likely," Fan Lü said. "Seeing how strong you all are, he probably wants to become someone like you. The gene potion is his only chance!"
"Did your research succeed?"
"No. As you can see, Loriv entered a berserk state and was completely out of control."
"Hmph!" Jing Yuan snorted. Fan Lü and Vandy weren't biologists; were they really perfecting a gene potion here?
If this thing were truly useful, why wouldn't they have researched and used it sooner?
If Charles became a superhuman, he could knock out Marc with one punch and become the City Lord easily and simply.
Why bother with conspiracies and schemes!
Jing Yuan believed that in the face of absolute martial force, no conspiracy would work.
"Take them back and lock them up."
"Yes!"
"Lord Jing Yuan!" Fan Lü suddenly said, "Now that Charles has been defeated by you, he still has many subordinates lurking on the Lighthouse, ready to start a riot at any time."
Jing Yuan looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
"If I help you find these people, can I trade that for a chance at freedom?"
"Fan Lü, what are you doing! You want to betray the Leader!" Vandy suddenly asked loudly.
"The wise submit to circumstances." Fan Lü suddenly became very indifferent.
"You traitor!"
Vandy's eyes were nearly splitting with rage, as if she really had been betrayed.
Jing Yuan watched like he was at a play. He took the two back to the Law Enforcement Office, locked Vandy up, and kept Fan Lü by his side.
Jing Yuan sat in the seat Charles once occupied. He looked at Fan Lü beside him and asked with a smile, "How many die-hard fans of Charles are still out there?"
Fan Lü walked to Jing Yuan with a swaying posture and smiled, "Leader, as for the specific number, I need to think about it carefully. Before that, don't you want to do something else?"
Jing Yuan's gaze fixed on Fan Lü, thinking to himself: Is that it?
